Sorry this has happened. Maybe you can get a part time (training) position.
Regarding UE...Try having them send you a letter that your filing year is up and you are going to be cut off. You call them and they say that is a foul up and there has been an extension. File the objection. Have a phone interview with an officer and give a sworn statement re the objection. 3 days later get all the following:
1. A letter stating you have not worked and you are being cut off.
2. A letter stating that you qualify for an extension and have been automatically enrolled.
3. A letter stating that you have had a lapse and you need to go into the office for help.
Do they have a clue? No wonder we are in economic trouble. Left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing......
I would rather work, it is easier on the nerves. (if there was a job available). They are few and far between here.
